You should book your photographer around 11months from your wedding. Since photography business are most often run by a single person or small teams of creative professionals that work one wedding per day, its important to book early. Be sure to take your venue into account when determining your preferred photography style.

3. Your videographer

Your videographer is equally as important as your photographer on your big day. They also capture beautiful moments at your events. Videography business is run by a single person or a duo of creative professionals who work one wedding per day so you should ensure to book early as well. With a film you will be able to relive your day with your future family and remember even the smallest details you and your vendor team worked so hard to create.

4. Your hair and makeup team

Your hair and makeup team work hand in hand to make you look beautiful on your big day. You should plan on hiring them around six to eight months from your wedding date. Your beauty vendors will likely only be able to serve one full bridal party per day so it is important to book them sooner rather than later.

5. Your cake designer

You should also plan to hire your cake designer early enough. Although a cake baker can serve multiple weddings in a weekend, you should reserve your spot in their weekend schedule ahead of time to make sure you get the cake baker you like best.
